The Festival Orchestra, Chorus, and soloists join forces for a powerfully inspirational program of music based on traditional biblical themes. Bruch’s Jewish prayer for cello solo and Bernstein’s Jeremiah Symphony with soprano soloist set the stage for the dramatic choral works to follow. Bernstein’s stirring Psalms, Mozart’s serene hymn, and the Hallelujah from Beethoven’s oratorio end the Festival on a wave of joyous exaltation.
